I have two quarter-wave slopers on opposite sides of a 120 ft tower with 
bonded aluminum on top that lengthens it electrically. The quarter-wave 
wire are insulated from the top and held about 5 ft from the top. The 
antennas are fed, one at a time, from the base against 4 radials 
elevated gull-wing style to about 20 ft (height not well controlled). 
The grounded tower has about 8 on-ground radials (it's a passive 
reflector for the sloping wires).
